    I mean you spend more on this game than I do on health insurance, my electric bill or University tuition in one year's time. OR Vacation time. I could go to friggin' Russia (I wanna see that big *** red building and all dem russian womenz in mini skirts WHEN IT'S ****ING FREEZING) with that money ffs.

    Lemme just clarify: This thread is meant to be like a walk of shame, right? Where people come to say "Yeah I fell into the trap of CSing, started small then ended up paying thousands. Don't let this happen to you!" right? You guys aren't bragging, RIGHT?

    My point is I don't care HOOOOOW much you guys have fun with this game, for me this is a matter of simply knowing the value of a dollar. You could do SOOOOOOOO much more with that money that's probably a thousand times more fulfilling.

    And dun worry, I know you're small-time. I got more pics ready for when someone walks in and says "40k b:cool"

    I posted this thread as a satire on Cash Shopping, after seeing a LOT of people QQ about cash shopped gears, or try to pretend that their own cash shopping isn't as bad as someone else's cash shopping. I mean, all of you CHOSE to play this game to lvl 100+, even when it was obvious that this entire game is cash-shop based. So how can ppl QQ about $$ spent when the choice to play this game is voluntary?

    This game is not even that $$ intensive. Try getting into competitive magic:the gathering games without spending more than $500 every expansion. Just getting the lands to play your deck can cost well over $200. Granted, I think spending money on MTG is a slightly smarter "investment" of leisure money than PWI, but the same reasoning applies to this game. People in the US have a LOT of free money lying around, despite all this hooplah about being in a downward-trending economy.

    Here's the basic overview of QQ on this server: Person A does something person B can't beat, so they come up with some reason to justify why they're losing. "You have more CS/more gear...you play an OP class....You have an OP nix....You used heals in a duel...you used pots...You have a charm... get the point? If you QQ about something after losing, it's no different than complaining that a cleric healed in a duel. There are ways to beat that particular tactic, but it's probably not something that you want to do. So why QQ about it?

    New update: Tigerbabe has achieved whitename (lvl 30) purely by combining dragon orbs while hypered and afk! It's amazing what having tons of cash can do! And to think I was only able to get my own cleric to lvl 10 while combining crazy stones back when they first released hypers!

    What will the next glorious CS milestone be?

    I always find these types of debates interesting - what people could/should spend their money on. (Ive spend about 200 in over two years - none since early 2010)

    Take my missus (not literally). She would say its a total waste spending money on a game like this. At the same time she buys a new Danielle Steel book for $25 while I go get the latest book I want from the public library for free!!

    Good luck and thanks to all CS'ers. As we've said before, it keeps the game free for the rest of us.

    b:shocked

    Your books are ****ing expensive. Ours are like, 8.99 GBP (US$16?).

    Edited because im not allowed to post a ****ing pound sign without nuking my damn post.
    I've quit excluding TW for my faction. But I still hang around to help out those who still enjoy the game under PWEs horrific handling and to have fun in the forums. b:cute
    #Shame about PWEs absolutely craptastic handling of the goons glitching. Remember kids, there's no punishment for breaking the rules here!#
    If you make a valid complaint, your thread will disapear. Don't post it here, post it on other sites where PW can't hide it.

    Ok I'm honestly tired of all the speculation from non-cash shoppers about where us cash shoppers get our money and %^%$, so I created a thread for all to post truthfully about our RL situations and how much we've actually spent on this game. Just so everyone will know how little we care about what others say. So bring it on suckers I've already got my flame suit on (for only $300, bought @ wal-mart).



    About me:

    I've so far spent $4200 on Burnout alone, as well as $980 on an alt lvl 52 cleric, and $400 on an alt lvl 9 BM. I work as a *HEAD* Janitor of an Arby's store (store # 321123, SHOUT OUT to all my homies who be watchin' my back especially when the lunch hour rush gets goin' PEEACE <3). I've been working there ever since I dropped out of the 5th Grade. For a guy with my education levels I'd say that's not bad. And for your info I'm still planning to go to technical school to eventually become a doctor. I also play the tuba so if the doctor thing doesn't work out I'm just going to become a rock star and tour the world making millions with my lyrics.

    And for those who think I'm not smart enuff to make it and be successful WRONG again I think about and write all my lyrics in my head while sweeping the toilets so I now have thousands of lyrics and sometimes I even lose track of my lyrics when moving on to sink - cleaning.

    Also for all those who think I can do all this b/c I live with my parents, WRONG I live with my grandmother, who is technically not my parents they are my parent's parent's. And no I don't live in their basement I live in my Grandma's room, I'm responsible and take care of her and sleep with her at night so I can be there for emergencies so **** all you haters. b:angry

    Anyway that's about it for me I know I've spilled some revolutionary info and I hope to divulge my inner thoughts to you all very soon, I hope all you other l33t cash shoppers will do the same.

    But my bio is too awesome I don't think anyone can do better but i made this thread so you all can try b:bye.




    P.S. I'm still single ladiesb:cute , hit me up sometime.

    wow your life is complete. u has a grandmother,your room, your toilets and lyrics..and shiny pixel OP items..but u know what..i has more D: cause i didnt spent "$980 on an alt cleric" i see u r butthurt my friend,you just proved it with this thread. TROLOLO?
